Creation versus evolution: the never-ending debate, right? So many want us to believe that science and faith are incompatible. But what if they're not? What if science actually supports faith and what if faith actually informs science? Chip provides helpful insight to the current debate, in a time when the disagreements are more intense than ever.Main Points Defining our terms: Microevolution: The small changes that only happen within a species. Some examples of microevolution are the mosquito's ability to resist DDT after years of exposure, and the ability of different bacterial strains to resist penicillin. Macroevolution: The vertical transition between species (from one kind of species to another kind) evolving to account for all animal and human life. Creation: The belief that God created all things out of nothing, as described in the Bible in the book of Genesis. All of life in its rich complexity happened as the result of the all-powerful, all-knowing, sovereign God of the universe who is Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. Today's four major positions: Group 1: Classic Creationism - The literal biblical account Group 2: Classic Evolution - Random change and natural selection Group 3: Theistic Evolution - God-supervised evolution Group 4: Intelligent Design - A designer of some kind How did life begin? Evolution: Life's beginning was unsupervised, impersonal, unpredictable, a natural process. The beginning of life was random, undirected without either plan or purpose. Creation: Defined by the Bible. God spoke. Why did life begin? Evolution: Life began as a pure accident. It was random chance. There was no design, no plan, no meaning, no emotions, no purpose, and no value. Creation: You are the special creation of a good and all-powerful God. You are the climax of His creation. Not only is your kind unique, but you are unique among your kind. How did various plants and animals develop? Evolution: A simple cell evolved to more complex plants and animals through the process of time, chance, natural selection, mutations, and survival of the fittest over a period of billions of years. Creation: God created various plants, animals, kinds, and species in a harmonic balance to reflect His attributes and character. Complexity of Life Cells: Thanks to today's more powerful microscopes, we know that a single-cell organism, the most basic unit of any living thing, is incredibly complex. DNA: Is like the software of the cell, the computer program that makes it work. In fact, if you took a tablespoon and filled it to the top with this DNA, your tablespoon could contain the precise instructions to build every single species of organism that has ever existed on the planet. Astronomy: “Astronomers now find they have painted themselves into a corner because they have proven, by their own methods, that the world began abruptly in an act of creation to which you can trace the seeds of every star, every planet, every living thing in this cosmos and on the earth. And they have found that all this happened as a product of forces they cannot hope to discover. That there are what I or anyone would call supernatural forces at work is now, I think, a scientifically proven fact.” - Robert Jastrow Broadcast Resource Download Free MP3 Message Notes Resource Page Additional Resource Mentions Why I Believe & Jesus Skeptic Book Bundle About Chip Ingram Chip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.

In this episode, Dr. Dru Johnson sits down with Matt Whitman, host of The Ten Minute Bible Hour, to explore why so many Christians—and skeptics—struggle with Scripture. Whitman shares what he's learned from engaging millions online: people are often afraid to be wrong, shaped by graceless experiences in church and cancel culture in the wider world. The solution? Modeling curiosity, empathy, and intellectual humility. Whitman opens up about his own faith journey, the impact of church hurt, and why he makes space for disagreement and exploration in his content. From deconstructing popular biblical themes to highlighting the beauty of traditions outside his own, Matt argues that deep scriptural engagement thrives in environments where it's okay not to have all the answers. Together, Dru and Matt delve into themes like biblical coherence, the importance of interpretive grace, and what it means to approach the Bible not as experts, but as learners. Their conversation models the very ethos they preach: thoughtful, generous dialogue rooted in the belief that God's grace extends to our minds—not just our sins.

Abigail Rose Clarke is a somatic educator, writer, and creator of The Embodied Life Method. Her new book, Returning Home to Our Bodies: Reimagining the Relationship Between Our Bodies and the World, challenges the dominant narratives that treat our bodies as machines. Instead, she invites readers into a deeper relationship with the body as part of the living world. In this conversation, we explore embodiment as a political and spiritual practice, embodiment as a framework for systemic change, and how returning to the wisdom of the body can help us imagine and build a more just, interconnected future.

With only raw materials, could you recreate a toaster? Now could you do it considering the source of your materials, the effect extracting them has on the world, along with the use and inevitable destruction of it. This episode's guest did just that. Starting with the extraction of the materials, including learning 15th century techniques for smelting, created a toaster. Reflecting upon that project in today's world, is the topic of this episode. Where we dive into the philosophy of design needing a refresh in todays world in order to live in better harmony with our reality. Thomas Thwaites, Artist and Designer, joins me for this conversation. Check out his website for all of his projects, his TED talk and the project he's currently working on, a harmless car.

What if the traits you've been told are disadvantages are actually your “unfair” advantages? In this episode, Dan Sullivan and engineer-turned-ADHD-advocate André Brisson reveal how entrepreneurs thrive by rewriting the rules—not following them. Learn why your unique way of thinking is your greatest asset and how to build a business (and life) that rewards it. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Why entrepreneurs feel like misfits in traditional learning environments.The program that helps high-achieving ADHD entrepreneurs understand themselves better.The surprising truth about who The Strategic Coach® Program was designed for.Why Strategic Coach® members instantly “get” each other (and how this community transforms isolation into confidence).How André built an engineering firm that breaks industry norms.How André's ADHD has fueled his biggest challenges—and his biggest wins.The #1 insight André learned in 14 years at Strategic Coach. Show Notes: Entrepreneurs are shortcut creators—your ability to bypass inefficiencies is what makes you invaluable. The systems that frustrate you exist because most people prioritize rules over results. The real trick for entrepreneurs is to break the rules and get paid for the shortcuts they create. Everything that works in your life is the result of having created a new solution for yourself. If things don't work, it's because you're trying to fit into someone else's system. What you do and the way you do it is the center of your life, and you can keep expanding that throughout your entire career. Your Unique Ability® isn't just what you're good at—it's what energizes you while delivering exponential value. Once you decide that the way you do something is the right way for you to do it, you'll find the customers and clients who appreciate that. If you've been trained to do things a certain way, you might get stuck in that way of solving problems. As long as you're continually hitting a new Ceiling of Complexity™, you know you're growing. Freeing up your time to work at a higher level is a lot of fun. Underutilized and overutilized strengths are actually weaknesses.

In fact, if you took a tablespoon and filled it to the top with this DNA, your tablespoon could contain the precise instructions to build every single species of organism that has ever existed on the planet. Astronomy: “Astronomers now find they have painted themselves into a corner because they have proven, by their own methods, that the world began abruptly in an act of creation to which you can trace the seeds of every star, every planet, every living thing in this cosmos and on the earth. And they have found that all this happened as a product of forces they cannot hope to discover. That there are what I or anyone would call supernatural forces at work is now, I think, a scientifically proven fact.” - Robert Jastrow Broadcast Resource Download Free MP3 Message Notes Resource Page Additional Resource Mentions Why I Believe & Jesus Skeptic Book Bundle About Chip Ingram Chip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.

Quantum computing and AI are no longer theoretical concepts for tomorrow—they're shaping how organizations must secure their infrastructure today. In this episode of the podcast, Marc Manzano, General Manager of Cybersecurity at SandboxAQ, joins the conversation to share how his team is helping organizations confront some of the most urgent and complex cybersecurity shifts of our time.SandboxAQ, a company spun out of Alphabet, operates at the intersection of quantum technology and artificial intelligence. Manzano highlights two immediate challenges that demand new approaches: the looming need for quantum-resistant cryptography and the unchecked proliferation of AI agents across enterprise systems.Post-Quantum Migration and Cryptographic AgilityManzano describes an industry-wide need for massive cryptographic migration in response to the quantum threat. But rather than treating it as a one-time fix, SandboxAQ promotes cryptographic agility—a framework that enables organizations to dynamically and automatically rotate credentials, replace algorithms, and manage certificates in real-time. Their approach replaces decades of static key management practices with a modern, policy-driven control plane. It's not just about surviving the post-quantum era—it's about staying ready for whatever comes next.Taming the Complexity of AI Agents and Non-Human IdentitiesThe second challenge is the surge of non-human identities—AI agents, machine workloads, and ephemeral cloud infrastructure. SandboxAQ's platform provides continuous visibility and control over what software is running, who or what it communicates with, and whether it adheres to security policies. This approach helps teams move beyond manual, one-off audits to real-time monitoring, dramatically improving how organizations manage software supply chain risks.Real Use Cases with Measurable ImpactManzano shares practical examples of how SandboxAQ's technology is being used in complex environments like large banks—where decades of M&A activity have created fragmented infrastructure. Their platform unifies cryptographic and identity management through a single pane of glass, helping security teams act faster with less friction. Another use case? Reducing vendor risk assessment from months to minutes, allowing security teams to assess software posture quickly and continuously.Whether it's quantum cryptography, AI risk, or identity control—this isn't a vision for 2030. It's a call to action for today.Learn more about SandboxAQ: https://itspm.ag/sandboxaq-j2enNote: This story contains promotional content.

Can a timber-framed cottage built in tiny Frogholt, England, in 1450 and its current occupant and owner teach 21st-century business executives and entrepreneurs valuable insights about leadership and collaboration? Absolutely. Douglas Squirrel, who goes by the mononym “Squirrel,” is a multi-decade technology trailblazer and business scale-up expert. He uses his home, Old Kent Cottage, which required extensive restoration help from plumbers, electricians, structural engineers, and thatchers, as a practical business case study in managing complexity and as a metaphor for demonstrating that those with diverse skills must collaborate harmoniously or risk structural failure. As Squirrel explains, if the many artisans who worked on Old Kent Cottage hadn't communicated and worked together closely, the roof would have fallen in. It's the same, he says, with every business. Squirrel is a proponent of using the human power of conversation to build effective, high-performing teams that lead to “insane” profits. Along with Jeffrey Fredrick, he wrote a seminal book on the topic, Agile Conversations: Transform Your Conversations, Transform Your Culture. Squirrel is also the author of Squirrel's Tech Radar, which is available from Amazon UK. “You should be really curious about technology all the time, because there's nothing else that's moving as fast and that is changing the landscape of your business as quickly as the technological innovations,” he says. Squirrel chairs the Squirrel Squadron, a free-to-join global online community of diverse technical and non-technical executives who learn from one another.

A rich conversation about the necessity, joys and inevitable difficulties of loving - of loving one another, of loving all we can about this one precious life. About how easy it is to turn away, to distract ourselves, to check out of all that loving takes - as if that would save us from what Lizzie calls ‘the rattling sorrow' of loss. And about the responsibilities and ‘moral labour' that's called for for us to stay engaged, to keep returning, even though we have such breakable hearts, for the benefit of all those around us, including of course our selves. You can find out more about the Thirdspace Professional Coaching Course 2025-26 on the Thirdspace website wearethirdspace.org This week's conversation is hosted, as always, by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Episode Overview 00:00 Introduction and Celebration of Milestones 02:11 Exploring the Source: Wise Animals by Tom Chatfield 07:25 The Moral Labour of Living 15:24 Navigating Grief and Vulnerability 21:42 The Complexity of Love and Loss 27:19 Tussling with Different Points of View 31:32 Spiritual Perspectives on Living 35:02 Turning Towards Life Live - An Invitation to Engage and Learn Together Here's our source for this week: The Moral Labour of Living To be human is to be born into utter helplessness, in circumstances beyond our choosing. It is to grow and change, constrained by these circumstances and biological inheritance. It is to achieve some measure of independence, for a time, in the context of our planet's and our societies' vast networks of exchange and competition. And it is to seek not only survival but also – so long as the body's basic needs are met – some form of flourishing or contentment. There is no final victory, no guarantee of success, and no infallible guidance. There is only the contingent business of trying, together, to live and to know ourselves a little better. All of the above entails … moral labour whose difficulty and significance are inextricably linked. As the parent of two young children, one of the hardest lessons I have struggled to master – like most parents – is the fact that my children's desires are an imperfect guide to their wellbeing. Making their lives easier is not always the best way to prepare them for life. [It's] more important for me gradually to help them develop a measure of self-control, fairness and ambition – and to show them how trust can be earned – than it is for me constantly to monitor and intervene in everything they do. Also like many parents, a second lesson I'm still trying to learn is that the person who all too often needs to improve their self-control is me. To love and to nurture other human beings brings pain as well as joy; frustration and exhaustion as well as delight; the prospect of devastating loss alongside the gains of consuming love. And these satisfactions and sacrifices can't tidily be separated. To withdraw your care from any relationship is to make yourself less vulnerable, for a price: it's to diminish what you risk and give, but also what you can receive and gain. from Wise Animals: How Technology Has Made Us What We Are by Tom Chatfield Photo by Mario Purisic on Unsplash ---- Join Us Live in 2025 On Sunday 8th June 2025 it will be our 400th episode and we are planning a Turning Towards Life live gathering on Zoom.

Can you love animals, care about the planet, and still feed your dog meat?In this listener-requested episode of our FETCH First Friday series, Stacey Renphrey and I have a grounded, grace-filled conversation on the vegan and lab-grown meat dog food debate—sparked by a recent Dragons' Den episode that funded a vegan kibble brand.Together, we explore the complexities, contradictions, and sacred responsibilities of feeding a carnivore in a world increasingly uncomfortable with the realities of nature, death, and biology.This episode isn't about shame or sides—it's about curiosity, critical thinking, and compassion as we examine the deeper stories at play behind the marketing, science, and ethics of what we put in our dogs' bowls.✨ Topics We Explore:What is a dog, really? : Reconnecting with biology over belief, and why understanding your dog's physiology matters.The illusion of "clean" food: How modern marketing disconnects us from the sacredness of death and the truth of nature.What wasn't said on Dragons' Den: The missing context in the vegan dog food pitch—and why it matters.Bioavailability and the myth of macronutrient math: Why feeding isn't just about numbers, and what gets lost in lab-based logic.Technocracy, control, and false saviours: Questioning the rise of food technologies that promise utopia but often serve profit and power.Ethics without biology is ideology: What happens when good intentions override physiological truths.Re-sacralising the bowl: How to return reverence, relationship, and grounded ethics to the act of feeding your dog.Insects—innovation or industrial illusion?: The hype vs. the harm behind insect-based dog foods.
What happens when science, religion, and education collide? In this episode, Dr. Rachel Pear shares her remarkable journey from growing up in New York's modern Orthodox Jewish community to researching how evolution is taught and received across Israeli society. A scholar of science education and prehistoric archaeology, Rachel discusses how Jewish, Christian, and Muslim communities in Israel grapple differently with the question of human origins. Why do some teachers avoid the topic altogether? Why do secular and religious students draw such hard lines around what's “acceptable” to believe? And how do family, community, and national identity shape scientific acceptance? Rachel also shares her experience presenting three distinct rabbinic views on evolution in schools, showing students that Jewish thought isn't monolithic—and that questioning is part of the tradition. She explores the cultural weight of science, the legacy of eugenics, and how educators can create space for real dialogue in science classrooms. Whether you're an educator, a religious thinker, or just curious about how evolution meets identity, this episode offers a rich, honest look at a complex conversation that's still evolving.

A hundred years ago, people in small towns were building things that still stop us in our tracks. Two-story brick shops on the corner of Main and Commerce. Sturdy. Modest. Enduring. And beautiful.So the question is: what changed?I joined Geoff Graham on his Yeoman podcast, alongside Jaime Izurieta and Saifedean Ammous (author of The Bitcoin Standard), to try and unpack that question.We talk about why the small towns of the early 1900s could build beautiful things without credentialed architects, starchitects, or REIT funding... and why today, with all our global supply chains and five-star consultants, we mostly build disposable boxes.Turns out, there's a connection between money, time preference, and architecture. And when the money got funny, everything else started to crack too – our neighborhoods, our supply chains, even our standards for beauty.It's a wide-ranging conversation that touches on architecture, monetary policy, code creep, and how the over-financialization of everything is eroding our ability to build for the long haul.Take a listen if you've ever wondered why your grandparents' post office looks better than your city's new civic center.CHAPTERS00:00 The Changing Landscape of Building and Time Preference02:51 Exploring the Intersection of Money and Architecture05:57 Historical Context: Building in Early 20th Century America09:01 The Role of Local Materials and Community in Architecture11:54 Understanding Time Preference and Its Impact on Building15:09 The Influence of Monetary Policy on Architectural Beauty17:50 The Shift from Hard Money to Inflationary Currency21:03 Regulatory Challenges and Their Impact on Construction23:57 The Disparity Between Wealth and Money26:56 The Future of Architecture in an Inflationary Economy40:47 Innovative Window Design and Egress Solutions41:32 The Rising Cost of Housing and Inflation's Impact42:32 Housing as a Store of Value45:18 The Competition for Homeownership47:26 Regulatory Challenges in Housing Production50:47 The Complexity of Modern Building Standards52:43 Energy Efficiency and Building Costs53:43 Inflation and Environmental Concerns56:29 The Future of Energy Production01:01:20 The Role of Nuclear Energy01:03:03 The Case for Sound Money and Bitcoin01:12:14 The Path to a Low Time Preference WorldCONNECT WITH THE GUESTSGeoff Graham: Host of the Yeoman Podcast, real estate developerYeoman Podcast Website: https://graham.dev/yeoman/Jaime Izurieta Varela: Architect, developer, urbanistwww.storefrontmastery.com https://x.com/izurietavarea https://www.linkedin.com/in/izurietavarea/ https://www.instagram.com/storefrontmastery/ https://www.facebook.com/public/Jaime-Izurieta/ Book: Mainstreet Mavericks Saifedean Ammous: Economist, Bitcoin advocate, authorWebsite: https://saifedean.com/Twitter (X): @saifedeanInstagram: @saifedeanPodcast: saifedean.com/podcastCourses: saifedean.com/coursesMENTIONED RESOURCESThe Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking https://saifedean.com/the-bitcoin-standardThe Fiat Standard: The Debt Slavery Alternative to Human Civilization https://saifedean.com/the-fiat-standardCONNECT WITH AUSTIN TUNNELLNewsletter: https://playbook.buildingculture.com/ https://www.instagram.com/austintunnell/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/austin-tunnell-2a41894a/ https://twitter.com/AustinTunnellCONNECT WITH BUILDING CULTUREhttps://www.buildingculture.com/ https://www.instagram.com/buildingculture/ https://twitter.com/build_culture https://www.facebook.com/BuildCulture/ SPONSORSThank you so much to the sponsors of The Building Culture Podcast!Sierra Pacific Windows: https://www.sierrapacificwindows.com/ One Source Windows: https://onesourcewindows.com/

In the last 150 years, few things have created disputes in Jewish communities, in the way Eruvin has. Why? What makes an Eruv so very different to Kashrus?

My guest today is Cliff Sosin. Cliff is the founder of CAS Investment Partners, a fund he started with $5 million in 2012 and has grown to $1.7 billion as of the last reported numbers at the end of 2024. At the time, CAS had only four positions. This conversation is different to our typical episodes. We start by talking about Cliff's investing philosophy but the bulk of this long discussion is a case study into his remarkable investment in Carvana. Cliff is one of the biggest investors in the business, which had a market cap over $60 billion in 2021, then fell 99%, survived, and now has a market cap approaching $50 billion again. While I hosted Carvana's CEO, Ernie Garcia, last year to get the inside perspective on managing through such turbulence, today we hear the investor's side of this extraordinary story. It is a singular episode and there are so many lessons in this rare opportunity to hear a major investor describe his decision-making process at every stage of the journey.

What if quantum mechanics is not fundamental? What if time itself is an illusion? In this new episode, physicist Julian Barbour returns to share his most radical ideas yet. He proposes that the universe is built purely from ratios, that time is not fundamental, and that quantum mechanics might be replaced entirely without the need for wave functions or Planck's constant. This may be the simplest vision of reality ever proposed. As a listener of TOE you can get a special 20% off discount to The Economist and all it has to offer!

Philosopher Phillip Goff explores the nature of consciousness, reality, and the complexities of the human experience. He dives deep into pan-psychism and its surprising intersection with mystic religions. Drawing from his decades of research, he speaks on our finely-tuned universe, meaning/ purpose of life, quantum mechanics, and the Many World's Theory. The discussion culminates in a call to move beyond polarization and dogma in the pursuit of truth.Andrés Book Recs: https://www.knowthyself.one/books___________0:00 Intro2:07 Where the Great Thinkers of the Past Went Wrong5:53 Does the Brain Produce Consciousness?9:50 The Problem with the Verification Principle12:20 Do Our Senses Mislead Us?15:26 Panpsychism & The Hard Problem of Consciousness22:56 Complexity of Human Consciousness 26:26 Can Mathematics Ever Explain Consciousness? 30:47 How the Brain Correlates to Conscious Experience 34:46 Why It's So Hard to Solve This (Science is Asking the Wrong Questions) 38:33 Purpose & Meaning of Life40:26 Sentience in Objects, Plants, and Animals43:09 Where Panpsychism Meets Spirituality 46:38 An Ethical Structure to Reality49:42 Examples of How The Universe is Finely Tuned56:08 Making Sense of Life's Mystery 58:38 Teleological Laws of Nature1:02:13 Facing the Uncertainty of Reality 1:06:05 Examining Truth & Religion1:13:27 Addressing His Beliefs Around Christianity 1:25:13 The Mystical Side of Religions 1:32:53 Many World's Theory & Multiverses1:44:19 Going Beyond Quantum Physics1:50:25 Beyond Polarization & Dogma, Seeking Truth1:56:28 Conclusion ___________Episode Resources: https://philipgoffphilosophy.comhttps://amzn.eu/d/0O1FI6Ohttps://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyself.oneListen to the show:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/4bZMq9lApple: https://apple.co/4iATICX

In this episode, Ray Sclafani discusses the complexity capacity gap that many financial advisory firms face when trying to expand their client base. He emphasizes the importance of understanding client expectations, the need for customization, and the challenges that arise when firms are not structured to handle complex relationships. Sclafani advocates for a clear definition of service offerings, intentional team design, and appropriate pricing models to ensure sustainable growth without sacrificing quality or profitability.Key TakeawaysNot every client who meets asset thresholds is a good fit.Customization can lead to inefficiencies and increased stress.Pricing models should reflect the true value of services offered.Defining service scope is crucial for sustainability.Intentional growth requires clarity on client profiles.Regular audits of client relationships are necessary.Complexity without clarity can hinder growth.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeTo join one of the largest digital communities of financial advisors, visit exchange.clientwise.com.
Sophia Kim has spent her career breaking molds, and building better models for leadership and care delivery. From her early start navigating journalism and consulting to leading high-growth teams in healthcare, Sophia's path has been shaped by adaptability, ambition, and a commitment to creating change that matters. In this episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Sophia shares her journey from balancing a demanding consulting career with raising two young children to finding her footing in healthcare leadership - without a clinical background, but with a deep understanding of people, systems, and what real innovation requires. She talks about: How she's helping rethink access to heart care through virtual-first models — and why bold ideas are needed to meet today's healthcare challenges. The leadership lessons she's carried from consulting rooms to executive suites — including why being able to “be like water” has been essential to growth. How women leaders can create space not just for themselves, but for the next generation. Why technology must always serve people first — and how to balance innovation with the human experience. Sophia's story is about more than business growth. It's about resilience, reinvention, and the power of leading with both strategy and heart.

Do you have an example of non-determinism being an emergent property out of deterministic subcomponents?I'm curious @Stefan Molyneux why do people seem to avoid simplicity or any reductions in complexity?I get tons of requests to add complexity to software at work without any regard for value provided to customers.I find it fun, interesting, and not overly difficult to simultaneously remove complexity, often deleting large amounts of code, even while adding features and making the program more robust.I saw this recently too with people mocking Musk's raptor 3 engine, which is a massive simplifications of the previous raptor 2 and 1 designs. I see this not only as practical, but also a thing of beauty that something so simple can be so functional, and likely, more reliable because of it. Yet, people seem to hate it, and I don't quite understand.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
